+# Documents
+
+## Overview
+_Documents_ represent the _things_ that we want to store in the _Search Data Service_ and are themselves, basically, a set of fields containing the data that we want to persist.
+
+
+## Syntax
+_Document_ contents are specified as a simple JSON object. The structure of the _Document_ JSON should match the schema provided to the _Search Data Service_ when the _Index_ was created.
+
+For a discussion of how to specify the _Document Structure_, refer to [Index API](./INDEXES.md).
+
+**Example - Simple Document **
+
+ {
+ "FirstName": "Bob",
+ "LastName": "Smith",
+ "Age": 43
+ }
+
+**Example - Document With Nested Fields **
+
+ {
+ "FirstName": "Sherlock",
+ "LastName": "Holmes",
+ "Address": {
+ "Street": "222B Baker",
+ "City": "London",
+ "Country": "England"
+ }
+ }
+
+## API
+
+### Create Document
+Persists a _Document_ in an _Index_ in the _Search Data Service_.
+
+Note, that there are two variants of document creation: with and without supplying an id to associate with the document.
+
+**Create Document (No Id Specified)**
+
+If no _Id_ is provided by the client, then a unique identifier will be generated by the _Search Data Service_.
+
+---
+**URL**
+
+ https://{host}:9509/services/search-data-service/v1/search/indexes/{index}/documents/
+
+**Method**
+
+ POST
+
+**URL Params**
+
+ index - The name of the _Index_ to persist the _Document_ in.
+
+**Request Payload**
+
+ Document contents expressed as a JSON object. (see **Syntax**)
+
+**Success Response**
+
+ Code: 201
+ Header(s): ETag = ETag for the document instance that was just created.
+ Body: URL identifying the document that was just created.
+ Example:
+ {"url": "indexes/myindex/documents/AVgGq2jz4aZeqcwCmlQY"}
+
+**Error Response**
+
+ 400 - Bad Request
+ 403 - Unauthorized
+ 500 - Internal Error
+
+---
+
+**Create Document (Client Supplied Id)**
+
+If the client supplies an identifier for its document then that is what will be used for the document id.
+
+_NOTE: If a document id is supplied then it is the responsibility of the client to ensure uniqueness._
+
+---
+**URL**
+
+ https://{host}:9509/services/search-data-service/v1/search/indexes/{index}/documents/{id}
+
+**Method**
+
+ PUT
+
+**URL Params**
+
+ index - The name of the _Index_ to persist the Document in.
+ id - The identifier to associate with this Document.
+
+**Request Payload**
+
+ Document contents expressed as a JSON object. (see **Syntax**)
+
+**Success Response**
+
+ Code: 201
+ Header(s): ETag = ETag for the document instance that was just created.
+ Body: URL identifying the document that was just created.
+ Example:
+ {"url": "indexes/myindex/documents/AVgGq2jz4aZeqcwCmlQY"}
+
+**Error Response**
+
+ 400 - Bad Request
+ 403 - Unauthorized
+ 409 - Conflict -- Will occur if a document with that Id already exists
+ 500 - Internal Error
+
+---
+
+
+### Retrieve Document
+Perform a straight look up of a particular _Document_ by specifying its unique identifier.
+
+---
+**URL**
+
+ https://{host}:9509/services/search-data-service/v1/search/indexes/{index}/documents/{id}
+
+**Method**
+
+ GET
+
+**URL Params**
+
+ index - The name of the _Index_ to persist the Document in.
+ id - The identifier to associate with this Document.
+
+**Request Payload**
+
+ NONE
+
+**Success Response**
+
+ Code: 200
+ Header(s): ETag = ETag indicating the current version of the document.
+ Body: Document contents expressed as a JSON object.
+ Example:
+ {
+ "url": "indexes/myindex/documents/AVgGq2jz4aZeqcwCmlQY"
+ "content": {
+ "firstName": "Bob",
+ "lastName": "Smith",
+ "age": 43
+ }
+ }
+
+**Error Response**
+
+ 400 - Bad Request
+ 404 - Not Found
+ 500 - Internal Error
+
+---
+
+### Update Document
+Replace the contents of a document which already exists in the _Search Data Service_.
+
+**Optimistic Locking On Update**
+
+The _Search Data Service_ employs an optimistic locking mechanism on _Document_ updates which works as follows:
+
+The ETag response header field is set in the response for each document create or update to indicate the most recent version of the document in the document store.
+
+When performing a _Document_ update, this value must be supplied in the _If-Match_ field in the request header. Failure to supply this value, or failure to provide a value which matches the version in the document store will result in a request failure with a 412 (Precondition Failed) error.
+
+---
+**URL**
+
+ https://{host}:9509/services/search-data-service/v1/search/indexes/{index}/documents/{id}
+
+**Method**
+
+ PUT
+
+**URL Params**
+
+ index - The name of the _Index_ to persist the Document in.
+ id - The identifier to associate with this Document.
+
+**Request Header**
+
+ Accept = application/json
+ X-TransactionId = Unique id set by client (for logging purposes)
+ X-FromAppId = Application identifier (for logging purposes)
+ Content-Type = application/json
+ If-Match = The ETag value for the document to be updated.
+
+**Request Payload**
+
+ Document contents expressed as a JSON object. (see Syntax Section)
+
+**Success Response**
+
+ Code: 200
+ Header(s): ETag = ETag indicating the current version of the document.
+ Body: URL identifying the document that was just created.
+ Example:
+ {"url": "indexes/myindex/documents/AVgGq2jz4aZeqcwCmlQY"}
+
+**Error Response**
+
+ 400 - Bad Request
+ 403 - Unauthorized
+ 404 - Not Found
+ 412 - Precondition Failed -- Supplied ETag does not match the version in the document store.
+ 500 - Internal Error
+
+---
+
+### Delete Document
+Remove an existing _Index_ from the _Search Data Service_.
+Note that this results in the removal of all _Documents_ that are stored in the _Index_ at the time that the DELETE operation occurs.
+
+**Optimistic Locking On Update**
+
+As for _Document_ updates, the ETag value must be supplied in the _If-Match_ field in the request header.
+
+Failure to supply this value, or failure to provide a value which matches the version in the document store will result in a request failure with a 412 (Precondition Failed) error.
